About 15 years ago, I was given a stack of Cliffs Notes booklets from a bookstore that was going out of business. I’ve always enjoyed reading criticism after finishing a book, so I was happy to take them. I’m slightly embarrassed to say I’m just reading Jane Eyre for the first time. Ugh. Okay, that said, I went to my pile of Cliffs Notes and found that Jane Eyre was among the booklets I had. I then noticed the name and address sticker pictured here. Curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to look her up.  This is what I found:

I was a little sad for a moment, and then I took a look at the publication date of the Cliffs Notes booklet. It was published in the year 2000. This woman was born in 1914. So she was at least EIGHTY-SIX YEARS OLD when she bought these Cliffs Notes.  That’s so inspiring to me. God, please let my mind still be curious and active enough at 86 that I’m reading literary criticism. Thank you for giving all of us something to aim for, Felicia Bursht. You certainly were a “role model for the living.” And now you are again. Rest in Peace. from ml.books

Earlier this spring I filmed this short film with my good friend Cliff Kapono in Santa Cruz, CA. 

Vissla's Cliff Kapono met up with fellow Creator & Innovator, Travis Reynolds, at the world famous Haut Shop board building space in Santa Cruz, CA earlier this spring. What started as a brief chat about surfboard design, quickly resulted in the creation of a traditional, wooden alaia shaped out of paulownia wood and coated with linseed oil. From start to finish the process took about four hours, which gave Cliff the opportunity to test ride the alaia by lunchtime.

Would you happen to know of any tumblr or someone who does like cliffnotes for really longposts? Cause I'd love to read some long posts cause they're typically informative but sometimes I just cant focus ):

Not off the top of my head, but maybe someone out there knows!
